New Jersey To Receive Shipment Of Supplies From Tito’s Vodka
New Jersey is expecting a very large delivery from Tito’s Vodka in the coming days. Governor Murphy announced via Twitter on April 3 that the company will be sending a shipment consisting of 432 gallons of hand sanitizer.
In addition, the Texas based distillery Tito’s Handmade Vodka will be donating 3,000 masks and 2,000 gloves for frontline health responders here in the Garden State.
“We are actively working with local government emergency management agencies to distribute our initial hand sanitizer batches in bulk to first responders (police officers, firefighters and EMT), hospitals (and other medical staff), and managed care facilities such as nursing homes and specialized care,” Tito’s Vodka website states. “We are also working to distribute it to other personnel in critical need.”
Tito’s Vodka has since committed to donating $2 million to organizations that are providing assistance to those affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The company also shared that they will be supporting local efforts mobilizing during this unprecedented time of uncertainty.

We’re deeply grateful for these supplies. New Jersey thanks you.
While we advise that you cannot use our vodka as a hand sanitizer, our distillery has been working hard to get all of the pieces in place to begin production on 24 tons of hand sanitizer that adheres to industry and governmental guidance.
